Abstract Geophysical methods have been increasingly used to characterize the Earth's critical zone (CZ) and monitor hydrological processes occurring within it. For a quantitative interpretation, geophysical studies of CZ materials are necessary, thus require more sophisticated laboratory setups. In this study, we develop hydrogeophysical soil column system measure key hydraulic electrical prope...

The metabolic pathways of clozapine (CZ, Clozaril (Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, East Hanover, NJ), 8-chloro-11-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-5H-dibenzo [b,e][1,4]diazepine, a tricyclic benzodiazepine neuroleptic which has a reduced risk of unwanted neurological effects, were determined in normal male volunteers after a single oral dose of 50 mg of [14C]CZ. There was no radio-activity in exh...

We studied the macrophage (Mo) activation pathways through Mo interaction with immunogenic Trypanosoma cruzi antigens as cruzipain (Cz) and R13. J774 cells, peritoneal and spleen Mo from normal mice, were used. Although Mo classic activation was observed in the presence of lipopolysaccharide, evaluated through nitric oxide (NO) and interleukin (IL)-12 production, Cz and R13 did not activate Mo ...

In fully mechanized caving mining, the earlier top coal enters limit-equilibrium zone, easier it is for leakage to be induced in front of support. As dip angle seam increases, support drastically reduces stability stope support–surrounding rock system. this study, theoretical analysis, a physical simulation experiment, numerical simulation, and field measurements were performed consider influen...

This study examined the microbial transformation of carbazole (CZ) by an isolated bacterium that can use CZ as a sole carbon and nitrogen source. The strain identified as Pseudomonas stutzeri produced a large amount of anthranilic acid (AA) from CZ in the medium containing a nonionic surfactant. In dialysis culture using ion-exchange resin, 7.9 g/liter (58mm) of AA was accumulated from 15g/lite...
